Winterkill / Blood Truce
(2017)(A book in the Wilderness Omnibus series)
An omnibus of novels by David Thompson
Winterkill
Savage and dangerous, the unexplored Rockies hid threats that could kill even the most experienced mountain men. And any greenhorn unlucky enough to get stranded in a wilderness blizzard faced a brutal death. Settlers like Nathaniel King had the survival skills needed to live through the fierce winter storms, and they willingly helped any stranded traveler. But when Nate took in a pair of strangers who had lost their way in the snow, their kindness was repaid with vile treachery. If King wasn't careful, he and his young family would not live to see another spring.
Blood Truce
Under constant threat of Indian attack, a handful of white trappers and traders lived short, violent lives, painfully aware that their next breath could be their last. With only raw courage to aid them, Nathaniel King and other pioneers braved the savage Rockies to claim the freedom they found there. But when a deadly dispute among rival tribes blew up into a bloody war, Nate had to make peace between the enemies - or he and his young family would be the first to lose their scalps.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
David L. Robbins was born on Independence Day 1950. He has written more than three hundred books under his own name and many pen names, among them: David Thompson, Jake McMasters, Jon Sharpe, Don Pendleton, Franklin W. Dixon, Ralph Compton, Dean L. McElwain, J.D. Cameron and John Killdeer.
Robbins was raised in Pennsylvania. When he was seventeen he enlisted in the United States Air Force and eventually rose to the rank of sergeant. After his honorable discharge he attended college and went into broadcasting, working as an announcer and engineer (and later as a program director) at various radio stations. Later still he entered law enforcement and then took to writing full-time.
At one time or another Robbins has lived in Pennsylvania, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Montana, Colorado and the Pacific Northwest. He spent a year and a half in Europe, traveling through France, Italy, Greece and Germany. He lived for more than a year in Turkey. Today he is best known for two current long-running series - Wilderness, the generational saga of a Mountain Man and his Shoshone wife - and Endworld is a science fiction series under his own name started in 1986. Among his many other books, Piccadilly Publishing is pleased to be reissuing ebook editions of Wilderness, Davy Crockett and, of course, White Apache.
